Hate new update

soldiergirlmb

I use this everyday and have been really happy with it until the latest update. I used to be able to easily move back and forth between the map view and the description. The map was great, color-coded with a row of tabs at the top of the screen to choose a route and go from there. Now the route starts but I don’t automatically see the overview map, only the first step. Now, it is hard to move back and forth between the maps and the route descriptions. Also used to be able to easily turn “avoid highways” off and on. Now it takes more steps and the option is buried so I can’t easily switch while enroute. I like to be able to switch between routes while driving. Now it is too many steps to change while in motion.


Was 5 stars, but have been experiencing routing issues

St Loupien

Update 1-19-22: Dropping to 3 stars. Another example this morning: Waze has me go another route saying my usual route is 48 mins long, I check google maps and it says 39 mins, so I follow google maps and sure enough 40mins Long via usual route. I love the app and have been a loyal user for years, but I just can’t trust it anymore. Original: In the past 3 to 5 months something happened to Waze’s traffic/routing algorithm. Latest example for me happened this morning. Wade recommended a route that was 8 mins slower than the optional route clearly outlined. I selected the alternate route and not only was the route clear but it ended up being 25% faster than what was originally suggested in the app. And… I checked if there was an accident reported on the route… but no, so the problem is not that an accident was cleared after I started driving. This is only the latest example. As a result I’ve had to double check routes with google maps… something happened to Waze. BTW, I’ve been using it almost daily for years and have only started seeing quirks in the past couple months.


bugs on the app!

I have always preferred WAZE over any other navigation service. Not only is it convenient but it is also user-friendly compared to all the other navigation apps I have used. I don’t know if it’s the IOS 15 bugs or the app itself but it has been acting up lately. Sometimes it stays on despite me tapping on the power off button or when I force close the app. Recently, I tapped on my work address and it took me to a totally different one. TWICE. Meaning I made sure I read through it, made sure it was the right address before starting my drive. My work drive went from 20 minutes to an hour. I certainly hope this gets updated and fixed because I love using this app.


Great app

DanTheSecurityMan

Great app, works great has many many wonderful features about it the only issue that I’m having with it which makes me not use it as much as I’d like is when I’m connected to CarPlay there are times where the map is frozen and unresponsive, this started a few app updates ago. It’s super annoying and only happens with Waze on CarPlay, no other apps do this


I love Waze but it has bugs

JMYIAM

I have used it for over 5 years, love it! Most recent update every time I share my drive home with my husband it says “there was a problem sharing your drive.” I will try again later and same error.


NEEDS AN UPDATE NOW!

SIauNaturale

I always used Waze to find destinations and to be alerted to issues on the road. It is no longer working properly with Car Play. The map gets stuck and doesn’t pick up where I am. I am so disappointed as the other map apps aren’t as good at detours and getting me where I need to be.


I don’t like latest update

Travelin'm

I use Waze all the time however I do not like the latest update. When I enter a destination and check the ETA and the route…then cancel (or stop) before actually departing,the app used to retain my destination and it was simple, when I actually did depart, to pull up the destination and start the route. Now I have to re-enter my destination as it doesn’t show up in “Recent destinations”. It’s very annoying.


Doesn’t mark $

One finger lefty

Many times I have picked the route that waze says is no $, but then I have tolls. Not sure what their directions can’t figure out. But be careful.


Not at all what I was hoping for

Not good


Speed camera notifications are way too early

Sherrelyn

The speed camera notifications are 1/2 mile before the camera’s location which is way to early to be useful as you’ve forgotten about it by the time you need to make sure you’re not driving too fast. This is especially problematic in Staten Island where it’s brutal to drive 25mph and the car just rolls down the hills without gas faster than the maximum without you even realizing it. The app also has an preference to make me drive on the trucks cars and buses lanes of the expressways like I-95 when I’d rather not be anywhere near the aggressive truck drivers who could care less if you’re car is or isn’t in the lane they want to be in. Some navigation choices are also not the best option for a quicker seamless commute vs just following the highway signs.
